SIARAN MEDIA

The C-type, which was originally produced between 1951 and 1953, was famed for its exceptionally fluid shape by Jaguar Cars designer, aerodynamicist and artist Malcolm Sayer. The C-type won the 24 Hours of Le Mans at its debut in 1951, scoring the first of seven outright wins for Jaguar at the endurance race.

From 1952, the C-type pioneered the adoption of innovative disc brake technology in motorsports, with a revolutionary system developed by Jaguar and Dunlop. The C-type scored the first win for a disc brake-equipped car with Stirling Moss at the Reims Grand Prix in France and contesting the Mille Miglia in Italy. The C-type won the 24 Hours of Le Mans again in 1953, and also enjoyed success in the hands of private owners, which contributed to Jaguar finishing vice-champion in the inaugural World Sportscar Championship.

Of the 53 Jaguar C-type sports cars built in the 1950s, 43 were sold to private owners. The production C-type specification was limited to drum-brake-equipped cars with twin SU carburetors and 200hp, in the style of the 1951 works cars.
